When her parents contracted COVID-19, actress Tamannaah Bhatia feared she might get it, too. But her folks recovered and she showed no symptoms. Itwas only a month later last October, when she travelled to Hyderabad to shoot for a web series that she picked up the infection. Bhatia fought it well and recovered with yoga and a controlled lifestyle.

“My symptoms were pretty severe. I was in hospital for five days. It was very intense for whatever reason. The medication took a toll on my body and the recovery took about two months. My digestion, too, got affected and I’d feel bloated because of the medicines,” said Bhatia.
